Food and Drink Sites
- Recipes  There's
always something nice 'n' homely about American cookery sites and
this one's is no exception. Choose from hundreds of hearty recipes
from breakfast and brunch to mains, soups and sandwiches. Also, join
the All Recipes club (for free) and get a virtual recipe box, in which
you can store your favourites. (As this is a US site, don't forget
to use the conversion feature that translates from US standard
measurements to metric.)
- All types of Food  Everything
you want to know about food seems to be here: Jewish recipes, newest recipes,
meatless recipes, desserts, wines, tips, etiquette and chat. Perfect your kitchen
techniques by watching the video clips. Wonderful.
- E-Licious  The
UK's newest food website serves up a host of mouthwatering recipes from Asian to Italian,
from chicken to shellfish. Join the e-licious club (it's free) and you get access
to an online cookbook and a menu planner. The measurement converter (say, from
US to UK) is simple to use.
- Idrink  Impress your friends
by knocking up the best cocktails ever next time you have a party - with
a little help from the drink mixing website. Either search by drink name, such
as Long Island Ice Tea, or by ingredients. Non-alcoholic drinks are covered too.
- Sainsburys  The
recipes section of the Sainsbury's site has over 2,500 dishes to tickle your
tastebuds. Search for recipes either by main ingredients, course, cooking
time, type of cusine or dietary requirement. If your knowledge of wine's a bit shaky, there's a
wine finder to find the perfect plonk.
- Simplyfood  You'll
certainly wake up and smell the coffee after visiting the Glug section of Simply
Food. From cappuccinos to expressos, from filter to Turkish, this is a coffee
lover's paradise. Find out the secrets of good coffee and learn about the fascinating history of the drink too. There's
an equally impressive section on wine and cocktails.
- Veggies  Veggies need
never worry again about going without when they're out and about. The World
Guide to Vegetarianism is a comprehensive listing of vegetarian and
vegetarian-friendly restaurants and stores throughout the world.
